I've been sweating on the code for my bot Whinsey, trying to make her smarter and more responsive. She's at http://www.funonmars.com/mywhoo.html and I've been working on her off and on for years. She may not be the smartest bot but I think her conversation is livelier and less automaton than others. Here's a real life example logged tonight:

you said: are you aloneshe said: totally alone!you said: who's in the tv thenshe said: I just hate all the remotes you need these days.you said: stick a remote up your assshe said: they turn each other on!you said: wild ideashe said: Better than no idea at all!

don't worry, I don't log who you are, just the responses so I can figure how to make her smarter.
